Default 1972 camaro roof (enitre)

I was wondering if anyone could lead me in the right direction here. I have a 72 ss camaro that I'm finaly getting to. It was a vinyl roof and the enitre roof is shot, that's not the issue though, down the side is also bad where the roof meets the quarters. I can get a skin for the top but I can't find the side sections and the quarters (new ones) don't come high enough. Should I just look for a donor car or does anyone know where I can get the sides of the roof at? Thank you..

1/4 panels with the higher side piece to meet the roof are available at National Parts Depot, but I don't think anyone sells a panel that spans between the short 1/4 panel and roof. NPD's number for the full 1/4 panel is C-12940-9A or -10A depending on which side you need. But they are $389 for full 1/4 panels.
Otherwise I'd guess you'll need a donor car, but an early 2nd gen with good panels will probably be tough to get someone to chop up. I'd get the roof, and then make up anything I needed to span between your 1/4's and the roof, unless you also need 1/4 panels anyway.
